The mother of Gabourey Sidibe has a few words from Howard Stern after he decided to talk about Gabourey’s weight and talent on his not so relevant in my life radio show. I didn’t post the original video because Howard Stern and his “house” side kick Robin didn’t deserve the publicity, but Gabby on the other deserves the last word.
What’s that saying, “It’s Not Over Until The Fat Lady Sings“…Watch the video and join the conversation at Miss Jia.
Urban Bridgez has some exclusive up close and personal shots of Chris Brown reading to 3rd-Graders at the Sisulu-Walker Charter School in Harlem. According to Urban Bridgez, the school sent out invitations, and Chris Brown was the only celebrity to respond.
Stop by and thank Chris Brown for reading to the kids, and welcome @ChrisBrown back to twitter. His tweets were certainly missed. Now, if we can just get Kanye West on twitter. Imagine reading Kanye West uncensored in real time.
Is it me or does it seem like Beyonce is always playing a role. Check her out playing the role of wifey at Jay-Z’s ground breaking for the his new stadium, Barclays Center at Atlantic Yards in NYC. The stadium will house the “Brooklyn Nets” formerly known as New York Nets.
[Someone has taken etiquette classes. Look at those ankles crossed, that's how a lady crosses her legs. Very different from the Beyonce we saw in the Telephone Video with Lady GaGa.]
There has been a lot of hype surrounding this video. You don’t have to wait any further, introducing Telephone by Lady GaGa featuring Beyonce:
I can’t believe Beyonce is in this video, prepare to be shocked if that’s even possible this day in age.
Chris Brown is in Russell Simmons office trying to figure out away to become relevant, again. It’s hard trying to make a comeback when you don’t have the support of radio. It sounds like Chris Brown needs to start over and do some ground work. He is no longer the cute talented kid, but a flawed man in the eyes of many people. So he has to promote himself like he’s a new artist.
Here is a picture of Chris Brown in Russell Simmons’ office, tweeted by Russell Simmons; followed by a statement from Chris Brown, asking for support from his fans. Unlike most men he’s admitted his mistakes and has asked for forgiveness.
Swizz Beatz is caught on tape speaking about divorce to singer Mashonda. His logic is that one person, Alicia Keys, can’t destroy ten years of marriage. Ummm, yes they can if they’re cheating with your husband. Why bring this up, unless you feel some kind of guilt or shame? Swizz Beatz is just as bad as Mashonda. You won Swizz, let it go…
There is a lot he said/she said. My question is, if Swizz Beatz wasn’t cheating, why did Mashonda feel the need to go through his phone. Why were people in industry already talking a bout it and it turned out to be true? Women go through phones, when they feel you’re not on the up and up, not to set you up. I’m sorry, but his story sounds like he’s running game. Why didn’t he just leave before he got caught, no what I’m saying…
Now that Swizz Beatz has Alicia Keys, Mashonda is now a “scram”. Wow. I was trying to be positive and give him the benefit of the doubt.

How Making An Unrealistic List for the Man of Your Dreams Stops You From Actually Finding Him
He’s gotta be black. Tall, or at least taller than me. He’s gotta have a high paying job. He’s gotta have a 4 year degree. He’s gotta make me a priority 99% of the time. He has to like my family. He has to believe in God in exactly the same way I do. He’s gotta be physically strong. He has to be a certain age. He has to be fine. He has to be liked by everyone. He has to dress well. He has to be a lil’ hood, but also sensitive at the same time. He has to love the things that I love.
Let me know when you find one man who meets ALL of these expectations. And when you DON’T, let’s start talking the real talk. The first thing you need to do is take your favorite lipstick and cross out 50% of your “list” and then you’ve just come up with a more realistic idea of what the love of your life should look like.
With all the music, movies, urban legends and the looking on everyone else’s plate, I get why women have this delusion of what a “real man” should be. But ladies, women, girls…we will continue to fly solo if we don’t change our perspective.
Prince Charming died on the way to the real world. He doesn’t exist.
Being realistic doesn’t mean lowering your expectations. It means adjusting it. Being realistic means understanding that when a man and a woman choose each other, they are two completely individual human beings with varied tastes, likes and dislikes, beliefs, visions, desires and physicality. If you’re looking for someone who will meet every desire that you have, date YOURSELF. Otherwise, let’s join the rest of our happily dating and married friends.
When I talk to my single friends about why they’re single, most of them say that they’re afraid of “settling” for less than they deserve. So, the ultimate question becomes, “What Do You Deserve?” I can answer that for you. You deserve loyalty. Someone responsible (but not without error). Fidelity. Acceptance. Honesty. You deserve for someone to tell you when you’re wrong. Above all, you deserve someone who will walk shoulder to shoulder with you, hand in hand, through all the curve balls that life throws at you.
When your skin starts to sag, your stretch marks become more visible, you’re less pretty, gain weight, get too skinny, lose your job, experience death with family or friends, on your menstrual cycle, no longer get your menstrual cycle, have depression, lose confidence, become irrelevant to the world….if the man sitting in front of you can look you in the eyes and say he’s still in love with you…you’ve just hit the jackpot.
